Take an umbrella

I'm in Seattle.....bring an umbrella

Only bring an umbrella if you want to be singled out as a tourist.

And more than likely, on the days rain is predicted, it may rain briefly, but the rest of the day is fine. Yet, the national weather talks about how it rained in Seattle again.

The rain is usually a lighter rain than other parts of the country, btw. More of a mist or sprinkle than a shower or real storm.

Yes, if you can avoid the trip, do so.

Only visit Florida, California, or New York. Otherwise, you will regret it!

It can be dangerous. Many people who visit find their lives very disrupted by the overwhelming desire to move here.

I second that

That's what I hear. I want to get out there before year's end, just to take a look around...

And the girls are hot.

Yay Pacific NW!

Imago said:

yes we are

And Jimi and Bruce are buried there

Imago said:

Correct.

And we get less rain than NYC, which people are apparently allowed to visit, so. . .

There's a statue of Jimi kneeling on the sidewalk on the main drag through my neighborhood, and I noticed the other day that he has bird shit or something on a very unfortunate spot on his ass. I keep thinking I oughta clean the man up.

HereToRockYourWorld said:

Yes, please do.

You know, there are 12,000+ lakes here and 5 rivers I can name off the top of my head. The kayaking is aplenty here as well.

CarrieMpls said:

wow thats some cool shit and Melissa yes clean the man's ass wouldja please

CarrieMpls said:

I would love to kayak there!

HereToRockYourWorld said:

i am getting a tandem kayak, we could go together and beat each other with our oars...

HereToRockYourWorld said:

Maybe someday I'll learn to kayak and we can kayak all over the damn place here. Seriously, every 50 feet there's a new body of water to test out.

Or we could always just rent a canoe and tool around Lake of the Isles. But I suppose to a kayaker that's lame.

eraclito said:

Kinky.

CarrieMpls said:

I'll admit that I don't think canoes are much fun in comparison.

Kayaking on a lake isn't hard at all, though. You wouldn't need to learn much before doing it.
